IS he in, is he out, will he shake it all about, or will he be deselected the minute he walks into the Laburnum Road joint?

Speculation on all of these things was nearly rife yesterday when young Jake Morrison, Independent Councillor for Wavertree, announced he was in talks with Mayor Joe Anderson to go back into the Labour fold.

Jake, champion of the national defibrillator cause and once the city's youngest ever Labour councillor, saw it all unravel last summer.

First he quit and was subsequently suspended from the party after his very public row with MP Luciana Berger. Tensions were high, everyone got called for everything, with Jake even being accused of "pissing on his chips" by local Labour chief whip Alan Dean

Remarkable performance by the infant phenomenon on the Roger Phillips programme. He gave as some sort of evidence of his Left credentials that when he goes down to the House of Commons he feels more 'at home' with Labour MPs than he does with Tories. Astonishing, Jake.
